100% Arabica Ground Coffee: A Buying Guide

Lucarise ground coffee is made from 100% Arabica coffee and comes in 250 g pouches in four styles: Turkish, French, Espresso and Arabic with cardamom. They are roasted and packed in our own factory in Oman. Each one is roasted and ground for a specific way of brewing, so the easiest way to choose is to start from the pot or machine you already use.

Which ground coffee should I choose?

Product Roast and grind Best for
Turkish Ground Coffee Medium roast, ground extra fine A Turkish coffee pot (cezve, also called ibrik or rakwa)
French Ground Coffee Medium-dark roast Coffee makers and moka pots
Espresso Ground Coffee Medium-dark roast, ground fine Espresso machines and moka pots
Arabic Ground Coffee with Cardamom Light roast, blended with cardamom A dallah (Arabic coffee pot), served in small cups

Why 100% Arabica?

Arabica is generally known for a smoother, more aromatic cup than other coffee types. All four Lucarise ground coffees are 100% Arabica, with nothing else blended in apart from the cardamom in the Arabic coffee.

Match the grind to your brewing method

  • Extra fine: for a Turkish coffee pot, where the coffee is simmered with the water and the grounds settle in the cup.
  • Fine: for espresso machines and moka pots.
  • Medium-dark roast for coffee makers: choose French Ground Coffee for a filter coffee maker or a moka pot.
  • Dallah: the Arabic coffee is for the traditional pot. Use about 2–3 tablespoons for 500 ml of water, adjusted to taste.

Storing ground coffee

Ground coffee loses aroma when exposed to air and moisture. Keep the pouch tightly closed in a cool, dry place away from sunlight.

Who is it for?
